The final main stage play of the Magnus season, Old Love was a funny and touching play about the awkward and often humourous situations associated with later-in-life romantic relationships.

Old Love is a clever witty comedy written for secret romantics of all ages who believe it is never to fall in love. This comedic love story spans almost three decades, and a half a dozen meetings between Bud and Molly. Playwright Norm Foster, one of Canada’s top comedy playwrights, writes old Love.
Actors Jo-Ann Waytowich and Vince Metcalfe are very familiar with Magnus productions and put on a very real and relaxed performance together which made you in the audience feel a part of their situation. In my many years of attending Magnus starting at the east end facility I believe Jo-Ann and Vince are perhaps the best performers in Magnus history. Their very natural interactions together make for an enjoyable evening.
The new Magnus theatre facility provides a very intimate view from all seats and is one the people of Northwestern Ontario should all be proud to have in our area. The stage offers the set designers the opportunity to project the play to the audience very well.
What I like the best about Old Love was the persistence Bud showed in pursuing Molly, the women of his dreams. You really have to go after what you desire, especially in matters of the heart!

The Amsoil Arena opened December 30th 2010 and is a 6764-seat arena, which can hold over 8000 people for concerts.“ We transitioned from the old DECC arena which was 5200 seats, so gained about 1500 seats. Also we now have 15 luxury suites along one side of the building. Each one of those suites holds 12 people as well as they have 4 drinking rail seats,” said Jeff Stark, Technology and Hockey Operations Director of DECC.
